Lords ‘should move’

-

THE House of Lords should relocate outside of London rather than moving to a building nearby during refurbishm­ent works, Michael Gove has reportedly told the Lord Speaker.

The Levelling Up Secretary is said to have written to Lord Mcfall of Alcluith suggesting locations including Stoke-on-trent, Burnley and Sunderland.

But former lord speaker Baroness Hayman said it did not make sense to move the chamber out of London while the Commons remain in the capital.
